I hope it is, just so it'll be one less thing for prople to bitch about.

I am not Insider , but common sense are applied here for every company who want to keep competing, SONY should have been working on the prototype or i should say PS4 Pro is the early prototype. It's not a rocket science, the same thing happen on Microsoft with Scorpio. Scorpio can be a full fledged new system if it has it's own exclusive and all their games are not gimped down for Xbox One. It depend on Microsoft, they could just made a half ass upgrade by not making exclusive for Scorpio or kill Xbox One market by releasing Scorpio as a full fledged new system with exclusive.

The PS5 has no doubt been in development since the PS4 launched. |
Why would they develop it so early its easy to construct a console. You only need the right parts and stuff them in a box and since Sony doesn't make any important parts themselves for their consoles why start now? Videocards, motherboards and CPU's in 2020 are not comparable with those of today. So what's to develop for it. It's design and controller which Sony can develop in a year easily.
Please excuse my (probally) poor grammar

"According to lead architect Mark Cerny, development of Sony's fourth video game console began as early as 2008."
Consoles are in development for a long time.

Remember when the oringinal PS4 released, on interview with Mark Cerny, he said the development of Ps4 had alredy begun since PS3 released. The same thing applied for PS4 succesor. It doesn't need to be the same exact part, that's why the reason prototype exist. Hell even Ps3 protoype is just a bunch of PC part with GTX 7800.

LOl i just explained the same thing
its not a rumour.. even in the Video the guy says its his opinion
i hope that it is because I'm not about this stupid non backwards compatibility shit when you spend loads of money to own them

That is only a Rumor. Untill such a time AMD has confirmed it, we should trust AMD's roadmap to some degree.
Well. That couldn't be anymore obvious.
The Playstation 4 is an old GPU design. It was old when it released. Having a few "customizations" didn't dramatically change it's capabilities... And the games speak for themselves.

Every article I am reading from Jan of this year states it is releasing in 2019, with no mention of it still being a rumor, like was stated in late 2016. Makes since, though, since Vega was also delayed from 2016 to 2017. As for fabrication, I don't think it really even matters. If it's not ready, then they'll just use the 14nm process they are using for current Vegas, or license another tech. Though, again, the articles I have read from this year have stated AMD is aiming for a Vega 20, which uses the 7nm process, release sometime in 2018.
"The Playstation 4 is an old GPU design. It was old when it released. Having a few "customizations" didn't dramatically change it's capabilities... And the games speak for themselves."
I'm glad we actually agree in the end, though. Console gamers are used to somewhat older tech, with a few improvemets from newer tech thrown in. It's what keeps the prices ~$399.
I don't see why not both Playstation and Xbox could be backwards compatible from now on. Both systems are now x86 based. Its doable.
